>>Rebecca, is the pageframe a separate form? Whether it is or not, you could make it invisible. If a form, then use hide() before release(). If a control on the same form as the submenu, use the visible property.

Rebecca, sorry about the delay in answering. If you use the Thisform.Release() command after the thisform.hide(), then your form will be completely released. Hide makes the form invisible, but it can still 'follow directions' like Release()
